Crashes and doesn't install Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community- setup detected an issue during the operation,

54 Views Asked by At

When mounting the vs_community.exe file it said "setup detected an issue during the operation, Please click below to check for a solution and help us to improve the setup experience" I have seen a similar error and the solution was reinstalling fonts because the installer uses WPF, but it didn't work for me.

To fix this issue, run vs_community.exe in administrator mode and check if you have write permission to the %ProgramData%\Package Cache directory.

It turns out my registry is affected so Ive gone to the settings and chose the "RESET THIS PC" option, and after a while. My OS Windows is now a fresh install and somehow it solved my problem in launching the installer of VS 2015.
